Family-friendly site in Purgstall an der Erlauf
Swimming pond, playground, restaurant and petting zoo
Near the Erlaufschlucht ravine for hiking trails

A warm welcome and friendly surroundings await at Austria's Aktiv Camp Purgstall Camping und Ferienpark. This is a family-friendly complex, set in the market town of Purgstall in hilly Mostviertel. There's lots to do here: the complex has a private pond for swimming and a petting zoo, as well as a playground. Outside of the site, visit impressive Erlauf Gorge or gorgeous walking routes and cycling paths. Barbecues are allowed on site; end a warm summer evening with a cosy dinner under a starry sky (if you're lucky). Aktiv Camp Purgstall Camping und Ferienpark is just a five-minute walk from the town centre, where there are coffee shops and restaurants, as well as sports facilities, museums and an outdoor pool with a 50-metre waterslide. More splendid scenery can be found on the hiking trails around the Erlaufschlucht (around 20 minutes' walk). Those who are particularly motivated can also go to the Fischersteig, which runs along the left bank of the river directly into the gorge. For a gentler hike, there is a four-kilometre, almost flat circular route on both sides of the Erlaufschlucht.

Fully-serviced grass pitch

Liked: Die Stellplätze hatten ausreichend Platz und das Kind war nahezu den ganzen Tag durch die vielen Freizeitmöglichkeiten wie baden gehen, Spielplatz, Streichelzoo oder Volleyball beschäftigt. Der Campingplatz ist nicht überlaufen und hat viele freie Flächen. Der Service ist super freundlich und bietet gutes Essen und Getränke zum mitnehmen. Am Abend war durch die Lagerfeuerstellen immer eine gemütliche Stimmung mit Musik geboten. Klare Empfehlung für einen entspannenden Urlaub

Disliked: Das Wochenende war hier zu kurz.

Liked: Hele mooie locatie met veel groen en open terrein. Het kleine kunst meertje was echt geweldig. Toiletten zeer schoon en voorzien van alle gemakken. Ook fijn dat ze een machine hebben die je chemisch toilet reinigt. En dan is er Claus.. een super goede gastheer (jongen) die alles compleet maakt. Claus bedankt ook voor de tip om naar Gaming te fietsen!!

Liked: Beautiful place with warm staff, clean facilities and generaly amazing space. If you want to spend nice vacation, this is the place. It is close to the city centre, there is a amazing small outside swimming pool in the city with a slide, you can swim directly in the camp in a biotope, ride on a bicycles around to swim in the river (which was my best swim in years). Just perfect place!

Fully-serviced grass pitch

Liked: Exceptionally well kept family campsite. Within walking distance of small local town, which again was exceptionally clean, tidy and picturesque. Would definitely recommend one or two night stay.

Disliked: Electricity included is only 2 kWhs per night - which is extremely hwrd to keep within.
0.80 euro per kWh thereafter

Fully-serviced grass pitch

Liked: The warm friendly greeting from Gabor, was very welcome when we arrived on a very stormy wet dark evening. He couldn't have been nicer getting onto our pitch and letting us know about the facilities. The next morning when we booked in proper he ensured we had all the information we required to make the most of our visit to Budapest. The site is set in woodland and is very eco friendly. I would describe the toilets and showers as rustic but perfect serviceable spotless clean and plenty of hot water, every thing you need. Location is a 5 min walk to a direct bus in Budapest. At €21 a night what more could you ask for.
